Our Methodology

At Globetrender we focus on qualitative research and expert insights under-pinned by quantitative data from multiple sources.

Innovation is at the root of every trend, so we report on what is new and disruptive in our online magazine. The identification of trends is based on: Intelligent Intuition, Observation and Investigation.

For every micro" trend, we also consider the "macro" trends that represent the wider cultural shifts in consumer desires, motivations, values and behaviours around the world. These are based on Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental and Political (STEEP) forces.
